The owners were super friendly and allowed our kids to help feed the animals. There is also a swimming pond and fire pit on the property that we used. The accommodations were clean, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed to make large family meals. We loved sitting out on the porch watching the animals and enjoying our meals and the company of extended family we were with. It was also within a short drive to Mt Gilead State Park where you can fish, kayak, and picnic. Our kids cried when they had to say goodbye to the animals and are already begging to make this an annual family getaway! ##### Bianca R.
